MAG Region Championships not allowing some to compete

[skschlag]

Well I wanted my son to move to 9 this year but coach refused saying the jump from 7 to 9 was too big.... nothing I could do. Like I said he will be back on track next year as a 14 year old level 9. When we got to the RD761 meet yesterday I expected to find a tiny group of level 8 13-14 year olds competing since that is the group they are cutting but boy was I wrong! 32 of them! My son tied for 1st so he was happy. Coach says almost all of his routines (minus Pommel) are level 9 routines so it stil baffles me that they held him back ‍ I guess I am just the mom... what do I know... I try not to cause too much trouble

Congrats to him! sounds like he will be right on track next year!!

(we were there for that session!! Sorry we didn't meet up!)
